I remember Silent Service very well! :rotfl: I still have it with the box and book all in good condition. I always thought that guy in the white sweater and jeans looked out of place. :-j I had Silent Service for NES the same time I had Command: Aces of the Deep. There was a point when I couldn't play CAOD because my computer at the time was a real piece of crap. CAOD was given to me before I actually had a computer that could handle it. I would play CAOD on a friend's computer. When I finally was able to play CAOD on my own computer that could handle it, it was a custom machine that kept freezing all the time. Eventually it went back and I had to put up with my crappy one again (Windows 3.1, 1MB RAM, floppy drives for both sizes, 8MHz (had a turbo button for 16MHz woohoo!! :roll: :lol: )). That was when I started playing Silent Service. I liked the game, but it just wasn't CAOD. When I got a computer that could finally play CAOD I was overjoyed. I didn't play Silent Service much after that. Another sim I played alot was 688I Attack Sub on Sega Genesis. That game was really cool, although I never really knew what I was doing. After that, the only other sub sims I have played was Jane's 688(i) Hunter/Killer, Sub Command, Dangerous Water, and of course Silent Hunter III. I remember trying the demo to Silent Hunter I, but never got the actual game. Came close, though. :88)

Re: Before there was Silent Hunter, there was....
 

COOL!!

I used to own that game. didnt understand it alot but still played it and thought it was fun

:yep:

Silent Service II on the Atari is certainly the reason I'm here.

It's almost strange how much I loved that game and actually got rather good at it, despite the fact that I was 9 years old and didn't know English - forget knowing anything about submarines! :lol:

But memories of it were so persistent that it only took a few good previews of SHIII for me to know that I would be hooked... and here I am a year after release, still as hopelessly addicted as I was to SSII - but a little smarter :up:

Ahh silent service was also the one that started it all for me. I played it on the c64 and the nes. Racked up loads of tonnage, but considering i was still a pup at the time not much tactical work went into it. wish i still had the game would be a heck of a nostalgia trip.

As a budding programmer at the time, the thing I liked most about it was that with a simple Ctrl-Break and LIST you had the whole code at your disposal. And it was in easy-to-read Basic, not machine code! Ahh, the days...

Silent hunter for me. The good old Dos days :roll:

darksythe Silent Service is easily found on the net and you can probably use Dosbox to run it.
Or even better, get an emulator of your favorite system and voila you're back in 1985!
I have an Atari 800xl emulator and sometimes load up a favorite game! :88)

Thats a good idea thanks :D \

I played Silent Service and SSII on an Atari 520ST. I still have the Atari AND Silent Service II (as well as BattleHawks 1942, Their Finest Hour and Secret Weapons Of The Luftwaffe; plus Oids and Wizball).

Silent Hunter changed everything, and I don't play those old games anymore, but still remember them fondly.
